Useful blogs & feeds

Let me first say that I did not understand how Feedster worked! I kept trying different search terms and the results were completely unrelated. It just looked like they were trying to sell me things. I'm sure this is due to my own ignorance, but its certainly not an intuitive design. Bloglines Search Tool is very easy to figure out and I got the results that I expected. It is also simple to subscribe to these feeds. Topix.Net is a useful site in that you can use it to get the latest news or you can use it to find news feeds. It is organized well with a list of topics or subject headings that made browsing possible. However, adding the feeds to my Bloglines Account was not straightforward. Syndic8.com is a bit clunky, but the results are relevant. I especially liked that the provided the feed URL. That made adding it to bloglines nice n' easy.
